Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1746478A2] A moving object (200) capable of recognizing an image and a system for directing the moving object are disclosed. The system for directing the moving object includes: a charging device (100) on which a docking direction pattern (110(B)) is printed, such that a central point (C) of the docking direction pattern (B) for directing the moving object (200) to a docking location and a power-supply terminal (130) are arranged in a straight line; and a moving object for driving wheel operations to allow the central point (C) of the docking direction pattern (B) captured by a camera (210) to be identical with a central point (A) of an image captured by the camera (210), and moving to the docking location. The moving-object directing system drives a wheel (250) to track a central point (C) of the docking direction pattern (B) captured by a camera (210), such that it can quickly and correctly move to the docking location of the charging device (100).
